week 7. constructing the bearers. jack studs have to be checked for alignment, levelled and braced. then we positioned the bearers on top of the temporary jack studs. the bearers at essentially laminated beams which run the length of the house. the bearers carry the house by transmitting the load of the entire house to the permanent piles at its actual site. the bearers also allow the entire house when completed to be moved to any location. positioning the bearers requires teamwork to lift and set in place. bearers are checked for alignment, levelled and braced as well.
